Why isn't the life of faith always full of victorious triumphs, prosperity, and success?  If we belong to a triumphant, victorious, prosperous God, shouldn't we always experience success?  Since trials are a part of fallen reality, how do we make sense of them in light of our faith?   Furthermore, what role do victories play in our faith?  What do we do when we lose vision to even tell a victory from a loss?  In the final section of the Hall of Faith passage, we will see that God builds faith in us by giving us energy for victories, perseverance for hardship and supplying supernatural vision beyond the disillusionment that often comes with earthly realities.
